The new flight model seems to make a lot of good changes for the landings. Not entirely sure if it fixes everything, but feels better so far. How are your results?

I've been searching around for an official statement about the pitching near the deck (low AOA in the wires, 3ptsiw etc) and therefore reading this old thread. Has there ever been an official statement whether or not this is a bug or something the actual aircraft does? I can live with both, but would like to know if it's my flying skills or something in the game.

Were there not a lot more templates by default in game? I have an older mission where i placed a SA10/SA11/SA2 sites from a template, but now it seems the list is mostly empty.

I completed the mission with all the lights off in my room and made good use of the radar. Then its allright.

Honestly in the current version of DCS i think in this mission it's almost impossible to do anything usefull at night. Everything outside the cockpit reads as pitch-black except some coastal towns and the moon. The NVG is very grainy. But even the TGP and Mav displays are almost unreadably as they appear as fully green squares as visible in the youtube video above. I hope the night lighting gets some attention.

Wonderful, thank you for really looking into it

Well, I tried the mission again the other day, didn't have the same issues as before, so who knows. DCS did have some updates in the meantime

Im having trouble launching off the carrier in mission 6. I hook up to the cat and then the mission seems to 'reset', meaning all other fighters disappear and i can't continue. Tried 2 times on cat 1 and 2.

I didn't know Raven One had checkpoints, that sounds like it may be helpfull, gonna try it out. Does anyone have a link or a quote where the devs discussed the save game feature and what the issues were?

Holy necropost! Anyway, i too would very much like a save game feature for DCS as i struggle to find the time to complete the longer campaign missions, due to reallife/family stuff. Seeing as how track files and tacview record pretty much everything, it should be doable?

Honestly, i've been waiting for a save game feature for DCS for years. I struggle to find the time to complete the longer campaign missions, due to reallife/family stuff. Please don't force any strange restrictions on a savegame feature. It's MY singleplayer campaign playthrough and i should be able to play it as i like. Seeing as how track files and tacview record pretty much everything, i don't think its really a technical issue. There's a request in the wishlist section which i raised from 2017

on the EGIW, full throttle a split second before landing seems to work. I get the 3PTS IW a lot? (3 point landing) I really dont think my glideslope is off.. any suggestions?

so.. how does the grading actually work? I can land fine, but get almost exclusive C passes.. (ouch the ego) Should i be level and straight before calling the ball? and at what distance? edit... oh i see, the manual has been updated... wings level and in the groove @ 3/4 mile.. then call the ball and the grading starts..

The base game is free, so just install and try it before you spend all kinds of money.

If you keep having problems, even after a reformat, it's most likely a hardware problem. Can you run other games without crashes? Maybe try some benchmark software to see if that runs. Is it a new pc or have you played DCS without problems before on this machine?
